VEHICLE RECOVERY ELECTRIC WINCH USE & INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

2

A FEW WORDS ABOUT PRODUCT SAFETY

Your Rugged Ridge vehicle recovery winch is a powerful tool adding considerable utility and enjoyment to your

off road vehicle. Keep in mind, however, that your vehicles weight, the forces required for vehicle recovery and

the variety of terrain, grades and cable rigging you might encounter, result in any winching operation having

the potential for serious personal injury or damage to your winch or vehicle. Each winch operation may involve

different risks making it impractical to provide warnings or information regarding all the risks you may encounter.

Fully understand your Rugged Ridge instructions and practice safe winch operations before attempting an actual

vehicle recovery.

To reduce winch-related risks and help you make informed decisions about safety, the accompanying instructions

provide certain information in the form of Warnings, Cautions and Notices. This information alerts you to

potential hazards that could hurt you or others.

This is a caution against anything which may cause damage to your winch, the vehicle or itsequipment if the caution is ignored. The Notice includes information about how you can avoid or reduce those risks.

This is a signal telling you that you or others CAN be KILLED or SERIOUSLY HURT if you dontfollow the Warning. TheWarning includes information about what you must or must not do in order to reduce

the risk of injury to yourself and others.

This is a signal telling you thatyou or others CAN be HURT if you dont follow theinstruction. The Caution includes information about how you can avoid those risks.

WARNING

CABLE ENTANGLEMENT/PINCH/CRUSH HAZARDS

Failure to follow these instructions could lead to severe injury or death. Consult further WARNINGS/CAUTIONS and instructions in this

use/installation manual.Due to loads involved, all winching involves significant risks. To minimize risks of injuryAlways:

Assure winch, mounting, cable and hook are undamaged. Vehicle, slope and conditions should not approach

maximum rated pull. Leave a safety margin.

Use supplied hook strap when spooling in or out (no load). Use gloves and keep fingers and body clear of

hook, cable and fairlead during installation and all winch operations.

Position operator inside vehicle when possible with control switch routed through window rather than door jam. Keep others

a safe right angle from cable and vehicle when winching (min. 1.5 times distance of cable). Use greatest cable length possible

while keeping at least five turns around spool.

Fully engage clutch before powering cable in. Do not disengage or adjust clutch while under load. Pull in stages to avoid heat

buildup and motor damage.

Never use vehicle recovery winch for persons or as hoist.

Cable or synthetic rope must be unspooled, stretched and respooled before first use. (See Installation instructions

and use warnings below). Cable must be re-wound in direction of arrow for spool brake to function (see arrow on spool side-plate).

NEVER MOVE CLUTCH WHEN CABLE IS UNDER LOAD OR SPOOL MOVING.

Use supplied hook strap when spooling in or out (no load). Use gloves and keep fingers and body clear of hook, cable

and fairlead during installation and all winch operations.

4. Cable or synthetic rope must be stretched and spooled under tension to prevent over-wraps and damage. Forinitial spooling, disengage clutch and using gloves, keep tension on cable while having assistant evenly wind the

first five wraps for cable, or a full layer for synthetic rope, by hand rotating spool in direction of arrow (see spool

side plate).

5. Next, secure hook to suitable anchor, connect power switch, engage clutch and slowly power spool whilemaintaining tension so that cable spools tightly and evenly. Rolling load of vehicle should provide proper initial

tension (500 lbs./230 kg. min.) while providing opportunity to practice winch operation and safety procedures.

Stop spool when hook is 6 feet/2 meters from fairlead. Attach and secure hook to vehicle frame. Slowly take up

any slack.

WARNING

CAUTION

NOTICE

WARNING

WARNING

1. Ensure vehicle, slope and conditions do not approach maximum rated pull. Leave a safety margin. Winchprovides greater mechanical advantage when cable is fully extended. Plan pull using as much cable as practical.

Double line using snatch block is preferred.

Read and understand all instructions and relatedWarnings, Cautions and Notices before attempting to install oruse your Rugged Ridge winch.

Planning and Use of Your Winch

Avoid internal damage by breaking each vehicle recovery into segments and allowing motor to cool. Do not continue

power to stalled motor.

A. Clutch Operation

1. Free spool by disengaging clutch. Move clutch lever clockwise to the OUT position. Cable may now bepulled off spool using supplied hook strap. DO NOT FORCE CLUTCH HANDLE. Use control handle to rotate

drum, aligning gear to free spool.

2. To power spool fully engage clutch. Move clutch lever counterclockwise to the IN position. Winch is nowready for vehicle recovery using power switch. Avoid powering spool in reverse as this increases wear on

spool brake. Return clutch to Out position after completing pull and assuring vehicle is stable.

B. Power Switch OperationKeep control handle in secure location, attaching before and detaching after each winch operation.

Clutch and Control Handle Operation

To avoid unintentional starting when winch is not in use: (a) remove & secure remote switch & (b) keep clutch disengaged.

WARNING Secure cable attachment requires at least ve (5) wraps on Spool. Do not extend red painted cable.Secure synthetic rope attachment requires a full layer on the spool. DO NOT EXCEED RATED PULL LESS SAFETY MARGIN.

2. Plan and center anchor and snatch blocks or rigging so cable pulls straight to winch. Confrm anchor point willsupport load with adequate saety margin. Where anchor is tree use trunk protector and shackle rated at least

double maximum winch pull. Where anchor is vehicle, (see below) ully engage cable hook through towing eye or

shackle rated at least double maximum winch pull. Attach to vehicle rame notbumper or winch mount.

Vehicle to Vehicle winching not recommended as it may exceed capacity o winch, mounting or cable. Do not drive

vehicle while winching. Avoid slack cable or shock loads rom rolling vehicle to reduce risk o ailure. Maintain steady tension through

winch and block vehicle at sae intervals. Winch not intended to tow vehicles or secure loads. Never use recovery strap as part o winch

operation. Stretch/stored energy in recovery strap may create shock load.

3. Extend cable manually by disengaging clutch to ree spool. Confrm cable hook ully engages anchor, strap orshackle. Do not fx hook back around cable to avoid damage. Confrm power switch on Control Handle is OFF

and attach remote. Fully engage clutch beore powering spool. Keep vehicle motor running to avoid battery drain.

Always keep hands, body and clothing clear of cable, hook and fairlead during operation and spooling.

Reduce risk o cable-related injury by clearing persons and establishing sae zone equal to at least 1.5 times length o cable.

Keep operator away rom cable and line o pull. Operate rom inside vehicle i possible. I not, operator should be at right angle

to cable and protected by vehicle where possible. To avoid electrical short, never route remote switch through vehicle door jam.

Confrm anyone assisting understands recovery plan and saety precautions.

Always wear gloves and use supplied hook strap when handling cable; never touch cable under tension. Never work

under or over cable under tension. Use Rugged Ridge dampener or substitute (heavy blanket) over cable mid-point

to dampen energy in event cable fails. Slack cable beore moving blanket or tree limb.

4. Plan your pull, recognizing recovery winches are not intended or continuous duty. Heavy load and slow line speed

indicate high amperage draw causing heat build-up in motor. Avoid damaging motor by adjusting toshorter pull cycles and longer cool-down periods under heavy load. Do not continue power to stalling motor.

5. Begin pull by gradually taking tension on cable to avoid shock loads. As you power in, cable must wind tightlyand evenly on drum to prevent over-wraps and cable damage. Avoid side-pull on spool or cable stacking against

spool side plates.

WARNING

Cable must rewind in direction of arrow indicated on spool housing for spool brake to function. If cable stacks or does

not spool properly, block or secure vehicle and slowly power-out problem section. Keeping gloved hands clear of fairlead

and spool, reposition cable to opposite side of spool. Stand clear of winch while gradually regaining tension on cable.

6. Complete pull by securing vehicle in gear with parking brake on. Slowly power cable out to remove tensionbeore securing rigging.

Cable must be stored evenly and tightly on spool to prevent damage. Using gloves, grasp cable in sections

at least eet ( meters) rom airlead. Slowly power cable onto spool while maintaining light tension to produce tight, even wraps.

Always keep hands, body and clothing clear of cable, hook and fairlead during operation and spooling. Wire spurs and strands from cable can cause serious injury. Always use gloves and do not allow cable to

slip through hands. Maintain at least 6 feet (2 meters) between your position with cable and fairlead. For control

and safety, keep power switch with person holding cable strap.

Always use hook strap when hook is within 6 feet (2 meters) of fairlead. Secure hook to vehicle

frame or tow eye and slowly power spool to complete storing cable under light tension. Remove

and secure power switch.

Maintenance

Do not use winch if damaged, submerged in water, in presence of ammable vapors or if cable isfrayed or kinked. INSPECT BEFORE EACH USE.

1. Using gloves and observing allWARNINGS and CAUTIONS described above, inspect cable and hook onregular basis and replace as necessary with cable or hook of equal strength. Cable clamp on spool must

be secured with red Loctite when replacing cable. Consult synthetic rope manufacturers load ratings,

recommendations and warnings if replacing cable with hi-strength synthetic rope.

2. Using safety glasses, inspect winch, mounting plate and attachment hardware for damage or wear. Carefullytrace electrical connections, from winch to control and back to battery, assuring connections are secure and

protected, cables are undamaged and battery remains fully charged (minimum 650 CCA, fully charged). Replace

or repair as necessary.

3. Winch is lubricated at factory and should not require additional lubrication. As electrical component, winch is

not intended to be submerged in water. If submerged, have winch serviced immediately to prevent damage andcorrosion. Spare and replacement parts for your Rugged Ridge vehicle recovery winch are available from your

retail distributor. See parts list attached.
